Critic reviews

James Suckling – Although this is already fragrant, the bouquet only hints at the enormous depth of this super-elegant blaufrankisch red. So graceful and refined, it redefines what the red wines of this grape can be. The giant structure is buried underneath a mountain of ripeness. Then the finish hits you like a lightning strike. Enormous aging potential. Drink or hold.” – Stuart Pigott, jamessuckling.com

About this Wine

From a “spectacularly unspectacular place,” says Roland Velich of Lutzmannsburg, from where a wine of such class and distinction should by rights have arisen. This wine represents a selection made from the oldest vines. The Lutzmannsburger plateau arose on top of a primordial volcano, and here the landscape encompasses a variety of soils: sand, clay and loam, in part lying above limestone subsoils. These confer an incomparably unique expression upon the Blaufränkisch, which manifests Itself ideally in this wine.

This wine has been harvested from ten separate parcels, all picked and fermented separately. After ten months élevage in casks, the initial blend is made, upon which the wine enjoys an additional twelve months in the barrel.

60-100+ year old vines. 17 hectolitres per hectare yield. 23-28 days maceration, spontaneous fermentation in open fermenters and wooden vats. 24 months élevage in 500-4000 litre casks. No fining. No filtration. No additives, except tiny quantities of sulphites. As a result of that, all of the Moric wines are vegan.

About Austrian Wine

Austria is a country with over 4000 years of wine making history, however, it unfortunately doesn't seem to enjoy the status and popularity that the high quality of it's wines deserve. Decades later, the country is still feeling the effects of a scandal in 1985 that destroyed its credibility at the time. 

Grüner Veltliner is the most important wine made in Austria, distinguished by its lightly fruity, noticeable spice and characteristic white pepper notes. This variety comprises roughly a third of all plantings. In terms of volume, Riesling plays a much smaller role than in Germany, but is responsible for some of the most appreciated dry white wines made in the country.

In red varietals, Austrian native varieties are dominant and include the tart and peppery Zweigelt, spicy and dense Blaufränkisch and juicy Saint Laurent.
